Well it's official -- 8 PM Advisory

So it's now official, I/we are now in a tropical storm warning. This means that we should be feeling the effects of the storm (39-74 MPH sustained winds) within the next 24 hours. I will be working tomorrow for at least a portion of the day I imagine. You see the Owner/President of the company I work for does not believe that the storm is going to hit us. Everyone else on our block has put up their storm shutters. We worked a full day when Hurricane Katrina, funny story I met a stripper named Katrina at Matt's bachelor party, I think she was Brazilian they all look the same, Brazilians, not strippers...



Nothing like driving to Boca to drink & play poker in a hurricane.

Hurricane Item Checklist:


  • Drink of choice -- for me its going to be Captain & coke (check)
  • Propane for bbq (check)
  • Frozen food to cook since power will be 50-50 (check)
  • Tupper-wear filled with water to freeze (check)
  • Ipod charged and new songs (check)
  • Jump drive backed up (check)
  • Laptop ready to go for blogging, other fun (check)
I'll pack a bag tomorrow



Be back later with more fancy NOAA pictures, maybe even some predications, I don't know what I will be predicting.

Also there is a lot of this all over the Boynton/Delray Beach area. And the stations are running out of the fuel. This is going to be fun!!
